SMCBR24Q User Manual

Enter the host name to lookup in the Look up the name field and click the Go button. SMCBR24Q will then query the DNS server and display the result at the bottom of the screen.

Note: The IP address of the DNS server must be entered in the Network Settings tab in the General button for the Name Lookup feature to function.

Ping

The Ping test bounces a packet off a machine on the Internet back to the sender. This test shows if SMCBR24Q is able to contact the remote host. If users on the LAN are having problems accessing services on the Internet, try pinging the DNS server, or other machine at the ISP’s location. If this test is successful, try pinging devices outside the ISP. This will show if the problem lies with the ISP’s connection.

Enter the IP address of the device being pinged and click the Go button. The test will take a few seconds to complete. Once completed, a message showing the results will be displayed at the bottom of the Web browser window.

Note: Ping requires an IP address. SMCBR24Q’s DNS Name Lookup tool may be used to find the IP address of a host.

Factory Default

The "Factory Default" button can be used to clear all of your configuration information and restore SMCBR24Q to its factory state. Only use this feature if you wish to discard all other configuration preferences.
